Plot

Infernet depicts the addiction to the internet and the consequences of a distorted use of it.[3] It manifests in many ways, such as the addiction to social networks, games and pornography.

The film portrays several people who are all connected to a distorted use of the web in different ways: Don Luciano (Remo Girone) is a priest who is persecuted by a group of bullies who use the internet to question his morality. Giorgio (Ricky Tognazzi) is a man (husband of Martina (Daniela Poggi)) who is affected by gambling addiction.

Claudio (Roberto Farnesi) is a totally amoral actor and his fiancée, Arianna, is played by Elisabetta Pellini.

Nancy (Giorgia Marin) is a teenager who uses the internet as a showcase to whore herself and then blackmail her clients by telling them she's under 18 and forcing them to pay money to keep quiet.

Giada (Laura Adriani) is a teenager who is in love with Claudio, the actor. She's the girlfriend of Ludovico (Viorel Mitu), the leader of the gang of bullies; Sandro (Leonardo Borgognoni) is the gang's hacker.
